1. A system comprising:

  • (a) a media console;

    (b) one or more sensors; and

    (c) one or more computers;

    wherein the system is configured(i) to associate each scene in a set of stored scenes with coordinates in a contextual control space, which control space has at least two contextual control axes,(ii) to accept input from a user, which input specifies coordinates of a target state, which coordinates specify a point in the contextual control space,(iii) to select a specific scene, in the set of stored scenes, which has coordinates, in the contextual control space, that are closer, by at least a first threshold amount, to the coordinates of the target state than are the coordinates of any other scene in the set of stored scenes, including any scene then being presented by the system,(iv) to present the specific scene to the user,(v) to calculate, based on measurements taken by the sensors, coordinates, in the contextual control space, of a specific user state of the user that results from presenting the specific scene to the user,(vi) to revise the coordinates of the specific scene, based on the coordinates of the specific user state that results from presenting the specific scene,(vii) after revising the coordinates of the specific scene, to select a second scene, in the set of stored scenes, that is different than the specific scene and that has coordinates in the contextual control space which are then closer, by at least a second threshold amount, to the coordinates of the target state than are the coordinates of any other scene in the set of stored scenes, including the specific scene; and

    (viii) to present the second scene to the user.
